Traditional music and dance in Brittany | Sonerezh ha dañs hengounel Breizh (1928)

Traditional music and dance in Brittany (English)
Sonerezh ha dañs hengounel Breizh (Breton)
Musiques et danses traditionnelles en Bretagne (French)
The Bretons are a Celtic ethnic group native to Brittany, France. They are descended from English Celts who emigrated from England during the Anglo Saxon settlement of Britain. Many Bretons still speak the Breton language, which is most closely related to Welsh, and many aspects of their culture differ significantly from the rest of France.
Two instruments are used in this performance and appear at 1:48. The small pipe is called a bombard, or talabard in Breton; the bagpipe (playing the higher part) is a binioù kozh (“old bagpipe”). The two instruments are traditionally played together to accompany traditional Breton folk dancing. The Breton bagpipe is presumed to be related to its Irish and Scottish equivalents, although this is not confirmed. It is worth noting that bagpipes are found in many non-Celtic parts of Europe, such as Italy and the Balkans.

Welsh speakers can understand Breton and vice versa. Amazing how similar Breton female dress is to Welsh female dress in that era

Ah, the langue d'oïl totally ruined anything Breton!

[@aiael528]

Why do you say that?

[@israeldavidleonrodriguez2887]

@Ai Ael Don't you really know it? During the French Revolution, only 20% of French could speak the Parisian language, but now, almost all native languages are dying inside France, including that Breton language. Why can't anyone ever have any right to learn anything in his mother tongue as a little child?

@@israeldavidleonrodriguez2887May be you don't know it, but it was very often families choice to forgive breton language, to escape from poverty and get a better future.

@h lp What have you said? That's why I gonna hate racists called typical French. Put that damn sweet imperialism into a dust bin. Does the Occitan language have no value at all, just because political centralisation and Paris are important?
